your background is out of place in the upper righthand corner

Does not look totally sharp (movement blur ?), needs some white balance correction. I would then crop closer, above the waist, take away some black away of the sides, and then you have a great portrait.

nice and casual...I like the pose and they look very comfortable...it looks like there is a slight yellow cast to the shot though

Young love, redux... this is a great use of lighting and framing to show a relationship. - 8

Nicely done BOL Cropping just above the belt would have made it for me. Still a great shot.

Good pose, I like the soft expressions, but she seems to be looking up. I would like to see this cropped much tighter, take some of the sides and crop below the elbow. I like portraits to be just a little warm, this seems to be too warm, could be my monitor. :)

nice intimate portrait. a bit too red and noisy in the skin tones. his cuff of his sleeve needs to be fixed. overall good. :)

Nicely composed, good color balance. I would have cropped more off the bottom of the picture. The only nit I have is that the female subject is looking just over my right shoulder, while the male model is looking right at me, and believe me this is nitpicking. Cute couple

Nicely done.

good background work, but the warm cast is way over the top too much in my taste, face lighting is too harsh for "couples portraits", and a hair light would have helpped a great deal I feel.

I think I would of liked this cropped higher. Her belt shine move the eye down. Good shooting.

nice image and exposure, but lighting seems a bit flat.

lovely photo..good colors and well composed. Only suggestion would be to have cropped the bottom to cut off the jeans.

A sweet portrait that I'm sure the models will really like. Colour seems a little too orange to me.

I like the lighting and skin tones in this one. Also, I like the expression captured from both subjects - very serene. I'm also glad you had the subjects dress casual - to reflect their actual personalities - rather than their "posed" personalities.

There needs to be more separation from the backing. Otherwise, a very nice shot.

A very sympathetic double portrait - nice expresions from both subjects. The play of black on black works well, with just enough light to show up the black tops. Perhaps the white balance is a bit towards red but it makes for a very warm feeling.

Very nice.

I like the pose, but the lighting is really orange and I don't care for that. And I hope I don't offend, but a little powder on her nose would help.

Skin tones seem to be a little red. Did you shoot this under tungsten lighting? Hues or Curves might pull that out of the photo.
